    The best part of COVID is watching one of my great childhood heroes slowly lose his mind through a series of CZcams videos. Keep it up AB!

      Dani McKenzie ummm...you might want to review your history books on that one, pally. While that nonsense took place in ‘81 (under Reagan’s White House), it was a DEMOCRAT controlled Congressional (continuing) response to the Carter-era effort to reduce costs associated with school lunch programs. The department that came up with that nonsense was staffed by good ol’ boys (never meanin’ no harm) and hired by Carter’s team. The press of the day had a FIELD DAY with the response, taking it to Reagan, even though he had little to do with it. Blame the guy in office, especially if he’s one of them Right-wing-nuts, I guess.

    As a huge fan, and an ATL resident, I can't tell you how many times I looked for you at Harry's Farmer's Market and Kroger back in the day. I thought how cool it was when Donald Fagen announced you were in the audience at Chastain the night they played. I was so close to greatness, and then I finally had the opportunity to talk to my culinary idol when my husband surprised me with meet and greet tickets to your one man show. I thought of a thousand questions to ask you, and then our turn up, you took pictures and joked with us and I froze! For the first time in my life, I was speechless. You ended up talking to my husband about the BMW motorcycles you and he had. What this star struck fan really wanted to say was thanks for the years of great entertainment, the recipes and the science lessons, and here's to many more!

      @@Hengebobs Don't get me wrong - I love Alton. I've gone to his live stage show. Twice. But it's typical of him, if you pay attention, to be making some "basic" recipe - but OH wait, the key ingredient is some specialty item (Muscovado sugar, anyone?) that NO ONE has just sitting in their cupboard.

    • @arthas640
      @arthas640 Před 4 lety +6

      What usually happens in situations like that is the government comes up with a legal definition and companies find out ways around it. A good example are "organic pesticides"; people usually assume "organic" means "no pesticides or artificial fertilizers" and they usually picture some small farm run by ma and pa using homemade fertilizers but they're usually ultimately owned by the same massive agrobusiness conglomerate and they still spray them with similar pesticides and fertilizers, they just isolate them from natural sources instead of from inorganic chemicals but are sometimes the _exact same substance_ just from different sources. Thanks to the way the laws are worded though its hard to prevent since its hard to make a legal definition between a natural harmless pesticide like apple cider vinegar and chloro-benzo-dihydrate tetro-chromide someone extracted from some mutant yeast strain developed in a monsanto lab.

    I've never heard of "uncured bacon" before, and I'm really puzzled by it. I mean ... I'd say bacon is cured meat, pretty much by definition. So if it isn't cured, how can it be bacon?

      Former butcher here - technically speaking the USDA has defined any "cured" product as nitrates and/or nitrites during the pre-smoking/cooking or preservation process. I worked at an all-natural grocery store (you know the one) and all of our smoked meats (ham, bacon, sausage, hot dogs) were labeled "uncured" because they technically went through a curing process but were nitrite and nitrate free.
